In my relentless goal to read all of the 2018 Goodreads Graphic Novel and Comics nominees, I come to the tale of two grandmothers who fell in love at a 1963 church bingo night, discontinue the relationship, got heir separate ways, and reunite 50 years later. Yes, bitter because it took...

"When Hazel (Elle) Johnson and Mari McCray met at church bingo in 1963, it was love at first sight. Forced apart by their families and society, Hazel and Mari both married young men and had families. Decades later, now in their mid-'60s, Hazel and Mari reunite again at a church bingo h...

This was truly sweet. I'm not really a fan of comics, graphic novels or anime but I was truly surprised how much I loved everything about this. I fully intend to purchase and read the other installments in this series. What a sweet and beautiful love story? ...

I'm really torn with this one. I'm giving it 2.5 stars. The artwork is absolutely terrific and its wonderful to see such a heartfelt romance with queer characters but the story and supporting characters just don't work for me.
The concept is lovely. We meet Elle, an elderly woman li...

Long lost loves found. They fell in love in 1963, but Hazel and Mari aren't reunited until nearly fifty years later. This story is so sweet but sad when you learn the convention the writer Tee Franklin uses at the end. It's a really positive comic which is just such a lovely change fro...

Well.
That's a depressing beginning.
2038 and parents are still kicking kids out of their homes because of whom the kids love.
Is there no hope?
I think that's one of the reasons for this book - there is hope!
If that's what you're looking for, you may find it in this book.

The art is the best thing about this book--fluid, colorful, bold, expressive. The writing, I thought, could have used some more work; the dialogue is painfully stilted in places, and the strong opening frame story never closes, leaving the reader awkwardly hanging. But I'm glad the sto...

This was so freaking adorable! Plus, the art was absolutely beautiful and so colourful. I loved the two main characters - especially Hazel.
The writing was kind of awkward at times. Thee dialogue wasn't always super realistic and I wish some of the characters were developed a littl...

I received a free copy of this book from Edelweiss
This was equal parts adorable and heartbreaking [and then adorable again ...and then heartbreaking again ...it was a roller coaster of emotions for sure] and I was absolutely bawling by the end [mostly happy tears but maybe a few sa...

The world needs more graphic novels in this vein, but I wanted more here. More character development, more love. There was clearly so much more to these characters and their story, it felt a bit too short and too pat. Love the art. ...

Is it perfect? Nope. It's got a big heart though and that's all that matters. ...

I highly recommend you have some tissues with you while reading this! What a beautiful love story and usually love stories make me roll my eyes(hard) but not this one, this one actually touched my heart and I was pretty sure my heart was dead. ...

4.0 Stars
This is a bittersweet love story featuring a lifelong relationship between two women of colour. The diverse elements were woven seamlessly into the strong, well developed narrative. This was a very emotional story that addressed themes of friendship, family and romantic lov...

My heart ?? this was a really sweet story and the art was AMAZING but tbh the writing left something to be desired. It was clunky and awkward at times and ended up taking me out of the story more often than not. It?s a fun read and I definitely caught the feels at times, but it...

Rod BrownAug 01, 2018

A bittersweet - though heavy on the sweet - romance that succeeds in spite of some odd and unnecessary sci-fi elements and a tendency to asterisk parts of the tale and shunt those events off into digital side stories not included in this volume. ...

A tale of 2 black women who met as teenagers in 1963 and fell in love only to be driven apart by their families. Fifty years later, they meet again at a bingo parlor, immediately reconnecting. Now they must decide if they will pursue their love or deny it to remain with the families th...

4.5 Stars for some messy definitions of sexuality but overall, this was just beautiful and wonderful and heartbreaking.
Such a fantastic, self contained story about coming out later in life. This does such a wonderful job of portraying the pressures on wlw in the past.

MY HEART IS EXPLODING ...

Julie ZantopoulosDec 03, 2018

This was such a cute story about a "forbidden" love between two women who couldn't be together due to family and societal judgment. It was heartbreaking and heartwarming all at once, and I adored the art style. However, the writing of the graphic novel felt off. The pacing was way chop...

Krista RegesterMay 09, 2018

There's a lot of diverse representation in this - I liked the queer love story between the two main characters, Hazel and Mari. Although, I felt that the writing didn't flow as well as it could have. The text felt too scripted and awkward at times.

I almost bought this a couple weeks ago, but I?m glad I decided to check it out from the library instead because this was a total letdown.
The concept was great and I think it had a lot of potential but everything felt so rushed. I couldn?t connect to any of the characters. The...
